hello,

does anybody know where i could find small shoes for my little son. he started to stand up and walk and i am looking for good imported shoes


many thanks for your help

I found Stride Rite shoes for my 9 month old at a store on XiangYang Lu. It was on the left side of the street (as you walk towards Fuxing Lu after the market). They had several styles, but are still a tad big for my daughter. I think they are for about 12 monthes, but a great deal at 40 kaui for the REAL DEAL. Happy Hunthing

hi, I found soft-soled leather shoes for my baby at that large children's market at 10 Pu'An Lu, off of HuaiHai Lu.

I read that going barefoot is best in the house because they develop their balance and foot muscles so much better when they can feel the floor underneath them. If shoes are needed, then soft-soled leather are said to be best developmentally. That being said, I also couldn't resist a pair of pink Elle tennies with the hardest bottoms around!

Agree with lioralourie about the baby walking theory and the place off Huai Hai Road. Don't forget to bargain there. You should be able to get at least 10% down from the asking price because of the fierce competition from the over 100 vendors under the same roof!
